&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; That&#39;s interesting. As I have already said,I haven&#3=
9;t bought the pinephone<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; pro,because it is expensive for me. So I&#39;m working on=
 a parallel project.<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; I&#39;ve bought this phone,instead :<br>

&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; <br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; That&#39;s cheaper. Between the specs I read that it has =
a mali gpu,too :<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Mali-T830MP2<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; <br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; so,eventually,I can use the Lima and the PanFrost driver =
even for my<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; samsung galaxy A6 ? I&#39;ve started planning to install =
FreeBSD on top of the<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; &gt; Android Kernel,using a specific patch,but now I&#39;m thi=

&gt;&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; The subject of this thread is about &quot;PinePhone Pro Boots =

&gt;&gt;&gt; so about the PinePhone Pro, not about the samsung-galaxy-a6_i3=

&gt;&gt;&gt; Any reply to the list to your material would be off<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; subject for the thread. That may make it less likely<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; that you would get a reply.<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; <br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; You might want your own thread with samsung-galaxy-a6_i3655<br=

&gt;&gt;&gt; in the subject for the thread. It would not guarantee any<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; activity but it would be less confusing than messing up<br>

<br>
Actually, naming the SOC in the phone in the subject, instead<br>
of naming the phone itself, would probably be more technically<br>

<br>
&gt;&gt;&gt; I will note that I do not remember any prior discussion<br>
